Our denomination - the PCA

The Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) is a Biblically- and Gospel-centred denomination that adheres to the Westminster Confession of Faith. Douglastown Community Church is a PCA church in Miramichi, NB, and is also identified as a reformed church. Below is clarification, from the PCA website:

"The PCA is one of the faster growing denominations in the [North America], with over 1450 churches and missions throughout the USA and Canada. There were over 306,000 communicant and non-communicant members as of December 2000.

"Reformed" defines the doctrinal beliefs of the PCA, which holds that the purest expressions of scriptural doctrine are found in the Calvinistic creeds, particularly the Westminster Confession of Faith. The PCA's representative form of church government is rooted in its name -- presbyterian. Local churches are governed by elders (presbyters) elected by the church members. This form of government extends through the regional presbyteries, which facilitate connectionalism, to the national General Assembly, which expresses PCA's connectionalism and the bond of union between/among all the churches."
